Opening links in separate pages--how?

[Manoj]

Hi all

While creating a website in Xara, I'm trying to find out how to provide the option to click on a link and have it open it in a separate page or window.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Manoj

Hi Sven,

Thanks. I'm working through Gary's tutorial and in that the last page link to an external site is indeed set that way. Still, I'm not seeing what I want, that is, a user should be able to right click on the link and see the option to open it in another window--like this:

I'm not seeing this right now...what am I doing wrong?

Hi Manoj.
If you use rollover/pop-up effects in your design, then all links applied to images on your pages are implemented using java script and not a usual anchor tags. Because of this, there is no right-click menu as browser have no idea if any particular image is a link or not.
On the other hand, all text links are always exported as anchors and so have a right-click menu. Also, if you do not use any rollovers/pop-ups, all links within the site are exported as anchors (with right-click menu).
Hope it helps.
